Evaluate sin 300° without using a calculator.

Anni [7]

Answer:

$-\sqrt{3} /2$

Step-by-step explanation:

300 degrees is in the fourth quadrant (it's between 270 and 360); sine is negative in the fourth quadrant.

Given we're in the fourth quadrant, the reference angle is 360 - 300 = 60 degrees

sin(60°) = $\sqrt{3} /2$

And since sine is negative, this value turns negative:

sin(300°) = $-\sqrt{3} /2$

A right prism with rhombus bases is shown. The side length of each rhombus is 5 units. The height of the prism is 16 units. The

Papessa [141]

Volume of the prism:
V = B · h, where B stays for the area of the base and h stays for the height of the prism. And we know that d1 = 8, d2 = 6
B = ( d1 · d2 ) / 2 = ( 8 · 6 ) / 2 = 48 / 2 = 24
V = 24 · 16 = 384
Answer:
The volume of the prism is 384 cubic units.

Lou wants to make a coffee mixture to sell. He is going to mix Sumatra coffee which costs $2.50 per pound with Columbian coffee

Scilla [17]

To answer this question you need to create 2 equations:
S+C=50
2.50S+3.75C=3.35*(50)
S=50-C -so now you can plug in S into the second equation
2.50*(50-C)+3.75C=167.5
Now you just need to solve this equation, the final answer will be 34 pounds of colombian coffee and 16 pounds of sumatra coffee
